I Tried the KneeFlow Massager

Relief, recovery, or regret? Here’s the verdict.

You may have noticed an ad for the KneeFlow massager on the OPP in the last week or two, well here’s the follow up. I’ve been using it for the past week or so, and it’s just as advertised. 

My knees aren't bad, but they’re not 25 anymore either. I’d feel the tightness after long games, or a little stiffness the next morning. And I’ve been feeling small tweaks when I squat and deadlift. Nothing serious—just enough to notice.

I asked the team for a KneeFlow mostly out of curiosity. I’d seen the red light therapy claims and thought, Sure, why not? What I didn’t expect was how quickly it became part of my recovery routine. The jury is still out on red light therapy for joints, but there’s some encouraging research and no risk to trying it. And Heat and massage…generally good on achy joints. 

First, it’s incredibly easy to use. Velcro it around your knee, press a button, and it starts working—heat, massage, and red light all in one. There’s a nice hum to the massage, I’ve been sticking to the medium pressure, which is just right. The heat feels like the best part of a hot shower focused right on your joint. It’s not bulky or awkward, and I can wear it while working, I actually have it on as I write this.

After about a week of using it consistently, I noticed my knees just feel better. Not bionic or magical, but smoother in the morning, and looser after long sessions on the court. That “old hinge” creakiness was less noticeable. 

If you’re dealing with real joint pain or under a doctor’s care, obviously check with them first. But if your knees are just asking for a little extra love after years of sports, workouts, or life in general, KneeFlow’s been an easy addition for me. .

It’s one of those rare pieces of recovery gear I actually use. Easy, effective, and it works without much effort. And that’s what I need—less friction, more movement. And KneeFlow still has a great discount for OPP subscribers, check it out here.
